about

touch – connections – sound – light – pleasing – dependance

 

Principle: Each “mushroom” triggers one sample into one speaker. The hit intensity lineary changes the pitch of the sample. ( very simple – out of tune…). The Led light does not react on anyone or anything…

I was afraid that I will have to explain. Fortunatelly everything works quite intuitive – people came, touch and play.

Installation was presented outdoor for two days, also during the rain…

 

It was my very first public outdoor interactive multichannel sound installation.
